Stability AIStable LM

Stable LM 2 Zephyr 1.6B

Stable LM 2 Zephyr 1.6B is an earlier instruction-tuned release based on Stable LM 2 1.6B. It follows a Zephyr-style training pipeline with supervised examples and preference optimization.

Research release

Model design and access

Its instruction format is supplied through the tokenizer's chat template. The card identifies public instruction and preference datasets and distinguishes this model from its pretrained base. Zephyr describes the adaptation method and release identity, not a different model provider.Stable LM 2 Zephyr 1.6B official model card

Practical use

Practical guidance. This checkpoint is useful for comparisons of earlier compact alignment methods. Preserve its tokenizer and template with the weights when reproducing behavior. For a new dialogue product, evaluate newer alternatives and the later Stable LM Chat release before selecting it solely because of its small parameter count.
